INTERESTING FIGURES.
An Instructive Discourse ON the Measu'S.
ment OF Fresh Eggs In Quantities.

An Instructive Discourse on the Mess0's-
ment OF Fresh Eggs In Quantities.
How few people realize how many
spawn of fish million is. We are ac-
cuseomed to read of this or that hatch
cry turning ont so many millions OF
whitefish, shad. salmon or speckled
trout, as the case may be. with
but little thought Of how many .
true million actually is. In CONVERSE
ton with an acquaintance some days
ago, while speaking Of the number Of
million of spawn we had laid down in
the Caledonia hatchery. l was asked
how many bushels of spawn supposed
we had, and if knew how many spawn
it took to make a bushel. l replied
that l had never thought of the matter
in that light, but as it would be quite
interesting to know l would ascertain.
Accordingly have had few estimates
made with some of the different varie-
ties of spawn we have at the hatchery.
We began with the salmon trout, the
spawn of which We're obtained from
Lake Huron. / mention this fact rs
fish caught in the different lakes differ
slightly; as, for instance, those taken
from the Lake Ontario salmon trout
are trifle smaller than the Lake HUI
ron trout eggs. We counted a quart.
exact measure, and found they would
run 5000 to the quart, and, taking this
as basis, there would be 49,, 600 to
the bushel, which would make just
5 1924 bushels of spawn to the million.
The young fry when Matched out would
require 200 twelve gallon cans to
move them, supposing that 5000 were
placed in a can, which is about all that
can be transported any distance safely
In a can of that size. Brook or speckled
trout, the spawn of which are consider
ably smaller, are found to measure H.
700 to the quart, or 374, 400 spawn to
the bushel. or 2 157-134 bushels to the
million. When Matched it required 167
cans of the above named capacity to
transport them, figuring at 5000 to
the can. Whitetish eggs l have esti-
mated at "a, 400 to the quart, and at this
rate there would be l, 100, 800 in a BUSH
ell. Shad eggs are about the same
size as the whitefish, and l should esti-
mate them at about the same. As TO-
600 young fry of either the whitetish or
shad is about all that can be safely
transported in twelve or thirteen gal
Ion can, it would require ITO cans to
carry 1000, 600 of either of these kinds.
